How many times stronger is a magnitude 9 earthquake than a 5 earthquake?
A magnitude 9 earthquake is 10,000 times stronger than a magnitude 5 earthquake. The magnitude scale is logarithmic, meaning each whole number increase represents a tenfold increase in amplitude and 32-fold increase in energy release.
How many times stronger is a 8.0 earthquake than none at all?
A magnitude 8.0 earthquake is 10 times stronger than a magnitude 7.0 earthquake and 100 times stronger than a magnitude 6.0 earthquake. It releases significantly more energy compared to smaller magnitude earthquakes.
Where earthquake more stronger in epicenter or in the edge of the earthquake?
Earthquakes are stronger at the epicenter because that is where the earthquake originates and where the release of energy is most intense. As seismic waves propagate outwards from the epicenter, they decrease in intensity and strength. At the edge of the earthquake, the seismic waves are weaker compared to those at the epicenter.
When the ground shakes it is called an?
It is called a tremor. Stronger tremors cause earthquakes.
What is the strength measurement of earthquake intensity?
Earthquake intensity is typically measured using the Richter scale or the Moment Magnitude scale. These scales quantify the amount of energy released by an earthquake, expressed as a numerical value. The higher the number on the scale, the stronger the earthquake.
Which is stronger a Tornado or an Earthquake?
In terms of energy output an earthquake is stronger.
Is a tsunami stronger than earthquake?
Earthquake
What would you feel more a deeper Earthquake or a shallow Earthquake?
peni5
Is a hurricane stronger than an earthquake?
In terms of the maximum amount of energy released, an earthquake is stronger.
How does magnitute of an earthquake deeper from intercity of an earthquake?
write the different intercity of an earthqueke
Is a tsunami stronger then an earthquake?
yes it is
What causes a canyon to become more deeper?
earthquake
Is a volcano stronger than an earthquake?
it depends how strong the earthquake is some can be stronger than a volcano or than a volcano can be really strong
How strong is a 7.9 earthquake from 4.6 earthquake?
If you mean how stronger a 7.9 earthquake is then a 4.6 earthquake, then a 7.9 earthquake is way stronger. It can take down buildings but then again so can a 4.6, still you've sorter got you're answer. But the 7 in 7.9 means 700 and the 0.9 is 90 so baisically your question is: How stronger is a 790 earthquake from a 460 earthquake?
Will an earthquake get bigger if it is deeper?
No. Size does not necessarily affect the magnitude of an earthquake. In fact, a deep earthquake will have less of an effect on the surface than a shallow earthquake of the same magnitude.
Was Chili'S earthquake stronger than Hati's earthquake?
haiti was 7.0 on Richter chiles was 8.8
How many times stronger is a magnitude 9 earthquake than a 5 earthquake?
A magnitude 9 earthquake is 10,000 times stronger than a magnitude 5 earthquake. The magnitude scale is logarithmic, meaning each whole number increase represents a tenfold increase in amplitude and 32-fold increase in energy release.
